  1. Good luck to all of the participants! This will be mentioned during my show tomorrow night. I hope you get a few gamers who like to hit the links.

    Slotted between the Ides of March and St. Patrick's Day, it's Episode 54 of Retro With Marco! Join me on Twitch as I showcase new scoring and speedrun records! I'll also take a look at the Saturn Virtua Racing review/documentary and a quick look at Audacity Games! Here's a promo ahead of the show:
  3. PandaMonium uploaded a review/documentary on Virtua Racing for the Sega Saturn and this one is definitely worth watching. The video includes interview clips with Chuck Tolman (who helped develop Virtua Racing for Time Warner Interactive) who recalls some of the struggles and obstacles he and his team encountered. In addiiton, PandaMonium compares the Saturn version to the other versions (both home and arcade). The video provides much greater context for a home version of Virtua Racing which has received a lot of criticism since its initial release.
  4. Attack of the Timelord! Magnavox Odyssey 2 Difficulty: 1 High Score: 1,213 February 19, 2021
  5. Good luck to all of the participants! I'm skipping this one as I never owned & never played TG-16. I did mention this challenge on the show this past Tuesday so I hope you get some new gamers here.
  6. I never owned a TG-16 so you can take my spot for this one lol.
  7. Thanks for the kind words, @Justin! I understand why this particular game can be so addictive. I'll get that run posted on the Odyssey scoreboard this week. I just posted a new Ms. Pac-Man record over on the Commodore 64 scoreboard.

  9. Ms. Pac-Man Commodore 64 Difficulty: Cherry High Score: 163,930 February 27, 2021
  10. OK, one more: Platform: Atari 2600 Flying through warp zones Shooting all of the beacons 99 seconds
  11. You're the big winner! Fun Fact: You also face The Bungeling Empire in Choplifter and Lode Runner. Fun Fact #2: I once played the C64 version and wondered what would happen if you destroyed the War Machine in the game without blowing up all six factories. It turned out that they don't build a second War Machine. I was kind of disappointed, then I laughed at the limited Bungeling budget.
  12. Platform: NES, Commodore 64 Fly in a copter Shooting planes and factories Fight the war machine!
  13. I started from the Banana level earlier tonight and I reached a level where Ms. Pac-Man moves at 50% speed. However, the ghosts still move at 100% speed. I lost my last two lives rather quickly given that I was not prepared for the speed adjustment. I thought it was pretty cool as I had no idea about this particular level. Here's a :50 video so you can see for yourself:
  14. I just spotted this thread which is why I didn't reply sooner. This is Pengo for the TI 99/4a? This looks really good.
  15. Thank you, @- Ω - for getting this particular forum off of the ground! Also, thanks to @RickRfor his bulleted list of ideas! Re: Emulation, I've been using Mac OS for several years (my better half used to work for Apple) and I struggled at times to find emulators for other platforms as most of them were Windows only. I would also throw Android in there as well as there's a pretty decent Reddit community for Emulators on Android. Another area to explore would be Homebrews as there are new titles developed for classic systems and computers on a regular basis.
  16. Thank you! It's my 1st time playing Odyssey 2 on OpenEmu. There may be some sort of addition to provide the voice. I really don't know. And yes, the quick and unannounced restarts was a shock to me lol.
  17. I've been doing my best to provide such info as I've submitted these runs to lvlupscore.com.
